HOW TO GET RID OF SPIDER VEINS?

Many people suffer from visible veins such as spider veins, telangiectasia, and cherry or spider angiomas on the face, legs, and other body areas. While common, these vein abnormalities can cause pain, anxiety, and embarrassment, especially during the warm summer months. There are different methods of treating veins and improving skin appearance. The focus of this blog will be laser treatment of the veins.

Vein abnormalities can be due to aging, sun damage, genetics, hormones, etc. Laser treatments can be used to treat these veins and reduce their unsightly appearance. 

During the procedure, a laser is used to direct light energy into the targeted veins. The light energy is absorbed and heats the blood within the vein which then coagulates.  The vessel walls then collapse and the vein is destroyed. Following the procedure, the vein may turn red and then is reabsorbed by the body over a period of approximately 4 weeks. 

Laser treatments are a non-surgical treatment option. Treatments are quick and performed in office. These treatments provide a budget friendly option with no downtime.
